**************************

Today is the 2nd Friday in May and that means it is time to join

SUGAR AND FRIENDS IN

THIS MOMENT, SEE BEAUTIFUL

It is said beauty is in the eyes of the beholder...

we just have to look around us.

In early April my peeps went to the beautiful

North Carolina coast to visit Sis and BIL.

We are sharing some beauty and some funny.

Funny because Mom thinks laughter is

beautiful

I guess the meaning is up to each one reading it.

It was on the dock in Beaufort. Mom LOL'd

Much anticipated new shop on the boardwalk in

Morehead City. BIL is an excellent chef so we

expect he will be going here a lot

Now for some fun pictures of boats and their names

The itty bitty dot in the middle of the picture is a

man on what looks like part bicycle part surfboard

paddling like crazy

Big Rock monument honoring all ships

who have want the contest

THE ENTIRE VISIT WAS FULL

OF BEAUTY BUT

THIS MOMENT, we SAW BEAUTIFUL

Our sweet daughter and son-in-law/

aka Madi's SIS and BIL

strolling down the boardwalk in Beaufort

Just 5 months ago he could not walk.
We have been blessed with a true miracle.
Each moment of life is beautiful never
ever forget it! Hold those you love close
and savor each beautiful moment spent with them.

KEEPING IT REAL: Pip's Way

Extra Extra Angel Pip has a book

read all about it HERE

Remember 20% of the combined sales of the book and e-book (for I-Pad) will be donated to Red Door Animal Shelter, where Pip was found.

From the very first time I laid my cat eyes on on

Pip I was smitten by his smile and the Fancy Feast I smelled on his breath.

We became fast friends and Dancing Partners. Let me just say

that man had moves....and rhythm.

Mom order us a copy lickety split. It arrived

yesterday. We are in awe of the quality of the

book, pictures and most of all

the

LOVE AND DEVOTION IN THIS BOOK

Ms. Kristin aka Pip's assistant

bravo, bravo and standing ovation from

us!!

Oh my Cats Pip and I both loved

Fancy Feast. He sent me a special can of

Chicken Feast in case I have a snack attack while reading his book.

Here are a few of my favorite pages from the book

Friendship is golden, life smells better when you have someone
to share it with.

All you need is love....and a dog.....
Pip was rescued from an animal shelter he was as devoted
to his family as were they to him.

Real dogs wear bow ties

What a beautiful book in honor and memory of

my very first beau. Most of all what a

wonderful treasure chest full of

wisdom for his family, especially sweet Madeline, whom he helped raise....
and all his friends all over the world.

Remember......

Thank you Pip's family for sharing him with us
through his blog and this book.
Hugs
Madi your best feline friend furever and eternity.

MY Tuesday Tail Tale

My Tail

from

I Could Pee on This by Francesco Marciuliano

If my tail is curved then I'm at ease

If it is tucked then do what you please

If it twitches then get out of my sight
(I'm watching a squirrel on my deck)

If it is to one side then I'm free for the night
(if you can wake me up)

If it is fluffed then I simply can't deal

If it swishes (and my fangs are showing) then it is about to get real

If it is erect then for you I give thanks

If it grabs food then you're petting a monkey

You should probably walk away

It there is no tail then I'm a Manx

BREAKING NEWSFLASH
